About Mates Rates

Lifelong best mates Sammy, Kristo & Tom sit down each week to get serious. Seriously goofy (haha just a joke [there will be more of those]). Joined by their horn honking listeners, they’re ready to receive your correspondence and have some regulation ‘fun’. Have a great time guys. The end.

   Edinburgh Chronicles 3: We're 3/5 Star Guys

   The guys are getting close to the end of their Edinburgh Fringe run but the energy is still (relatively) high. They discuss getting reviews, Sammy's Club Penguin heist, and play a few games including Internet Pulse Check, all in front of a very small live audience. Have a great time guys.

   Edinburgh Chronicles 2: Tuckered Out Already?!

   A week in to the boys' Edinburgh run and the demands of show business are taking it's toll. Between sips of Lucozade they chat about flyering, and the surprising highs and lows of the random Fringe shows they made each other see. Have a great time guys.
